micropython-pca9685
MicroPython driver for PCA9685 16-channel 12-bit PWM/servo controller.
Overview
This project provides a MicroPython driver for the PCA9685, a 16-channel 12-bit PWM/servo controller chip. It enables precise control of multiple servos, LEDs, or other PWM-based devices from MicroPython-powered boards like the ESP32 or Raspberry Pi Pico.
Key Features
- 16-channel control — Independently manage up to 16 PWM outputs.
- 12-bit resolution — Offers 4096 steps for fine-grained PWM duty cycle control.
- Servo driver support — Includes utilities for controlling standard RC servos.
- I2C interface — Communicates with the PCA9685 over the I2C bus.
- MicroPython compatibility — Designed specifically for the MicroPython ecosystem.
Philosophy
A lightweight, focused driver that provides essential functionality for interacting with the PCA9685 hardware from MicroPython, prioritizing simplicity and reliability.
